Holidays - It's been a while




Well, time has been making like a bird lately. Thought it about time i put a couple of pics up of the camping thing, i have more than these which i will add, if not tonight, then soon (as wasting a wee bit of time at work shhhhhh).

A bit about the holiday - as you may know we had to break up the camping into two parts, partly due to me having to be at work and partly due to availability of camping site. So, first part was great except had stroms every night so just after the sun went down we were stuck inside for a few hours, but al least we woke up to beautiful days. I think the storms actually did the tent good, as aparently they need to be worn in with water and sun to help them become water-tight.



The second spell was great weather was much nicer, no storms, so could sit out at night and talk and play games.

Anyway we spent a lot of the time on the beach swimming and boggy-boarding, building sand castles and of course burying ecah other up to our ears, in some cases a bit higher, fishing was great too all the boys caught fish, little Angle(type) fish in the river at the end of the beach, we went snorkling, Man it is amazing what is in there when your swimming around, was very cool, and generally eating loads of sasuages, burgers and the like all cooked by yours truely on the new $45 barging BBQ. Did not want to come home at the end of it, even though was very nice to have a warn shower and sleep without the sand everywhere.

(Isaac, don' think he changed, not wanting to leave)
Well, will put more up later of fish and swimming etc etc and maybe if your lucky of new years eve, which we managed to see in.

Looks great, very jealous!

It has warmed up a little here, now 5 degrees during the day.

Looking forward to summer time and some camping of our own hopefully.

LOL boys! You have had a great time - nothing like getting back to the basics somewhat. The snorkelling sounds great. Wait till you get into the real tropical seaside one day. Our best experience was Raro. Still you guys only need to head north somewhat to get to the tropics.

The tent looks like rather palatial and Isaac looks really relaxed.
